Photo: RNZ / Marika Khabazi Police in Auckland say the central city station they moved out of in 2019 is still for sale, a month out from opening a new 24/7 station up the road. Staff left their base on Vincent Street for their current base on College Hill six years ago. RNZ has reported police had paid over $3 million on the building from July 2019 to July 2024. More than $1,240,000 went towards rates, while $706,953 was spent on energy and nearly $470,000 on cleaning and rubbish. Other costs included vehicle running expenses, as well as repairs and maintenance, equipment purchases, property maintenance and consultancy. Police confirmed with RNZ the site was still being marketed for sale by a real estate agency. They said they could not comment further due to the commercial sensitivity of the process. Meanwhile, police said they were getting ready to open their new 24/7 central city station, located on Federal Street. "Construction of the front counter at the Auckland Central Police Base has made steady progress as was planned," a spokesperson said. The station was announced in November 2024. Commissioner Richard Chambers said at the time it would make responding to crime in the central city faster and more effective . "A 24/7 police base in the central business district will go a long way to address crime in central Auckland," he said. "Currently, the 24/7 public counter for the Auckland City District is located at College Hill, approximately two kilometres away from the city centre. "Relocating the 24/7 public counter will also provide a better service to the community." Police said they aim to open the central city base in late July.
